Know What To Throw

The North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG), in coordination with the Resource Conservation Council, launched its regional recycling survey and campaign, Know What To Throw, in August 2018. The objective of this project is to better understand the quantity and quality of materials in communities’ recycling systems, and to develop a regional public educational campaign focused on increasing recycling participation and decreasing contamination.

The Resource Conservation Council oversees the Know What To Throw campaign activities through a regional collaborative effort to improve the quality of recycled materials and decrease contamination while providing a forum for stakeholders to discuss concerns and achievements related to recycling. NCTCOG invites all local government members who are interested in participating to attend meetings or contact NCTCOG to find out how to get involved.

This project is funded through a grant from NCTCOG and the TCEQ.
